Richard LaGravenese's big screen adaptation of Jason Robert Brown's THE LAST 5 YEARS doesn't hit theaters for a few more days - but Ghostlight Records has unveiled a sampler of the just-released soundtrack, perfect for passing the time! Check out Anna Kendrick and Jeremy Jordan take on the show's beloved songs below!

THE LAST FIVE YEARS is a musical chronicling a love affair and marriage taking place over a five year period. Jamie Wellerstein (Jordan) is a young, talented up and coming novelist who falls in love with Cathy Hiatt (Kendrick), a struggling actress. Their story is told almost entirely through song. All of Cathy's songs begin at the end of their marriage and move BACKWARDS in time to the beginning of their love affair, while Jamie's songs start at the beginning of their affair and move forward to the end of their marriage. They meet in the center when Jamie proposes.

The film had its world premiere at TIFF in September 2014. With the film getting a theatrical release on Friday, new reviews on a potentially re-cut film are starting to come in!
